North America is filled with thousands of beautiful locations to visit like San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Hawaii, etc. However, the future of North America isn't looking so bright. Years from now, these stunning locations will not be so stunning if the Earth isn't properly taken care of. Global warming, pollution, habitat loss, and shortages of natural resources are just some of the problems the Earth is facing (359). This dilemma is demonstrated in the Tragedy of the Commons, which is a situation in which multiple individuals, acting independently in their own self-interest, deplete a shared limited resource with the knowledge of its long term effects (360). As temporary visitors on Earth we must do what we can to prevent such deterioration and damage of our home OR ELSE we won't have a future home!
